Chrome CSV Extension

Ability view, graph and explore CSV files in browser by right-clicking any link.

Notice this currently won't work for pasted URLs.

Usage

For now clone this repo, then issue the following two commands to pull dependencies:

git submodule init
git submodule update

Then go to chrome://extensions, check "Developer mode" and do "Load unpacked extension..." and point it to the directory you cloned into.

Some Developer Notes

Original author is trying to catch every time a CSV would be downloaded in Chrome and display it, which would certainly be ideal. Unfortunately it isn't working too well at the moment.

To circumvent this I simply added a conext menu item on links that opens the CSV in a new tab.

Eventually I'd like to add some more features to the CSV viewer itself and possibly give a shot at displaying ALL CSVs instead of downloading them.

Building

To build the ZIP file for the Chrome webstore do:

./make

ZIP file will be in dist
